With cyclist thinking the way you do it is no wander motorist get so aggressive. The problem is it is usually the courtious rides that get hurt over this.
So basically you are saying that the lane was wide enough for a bike and a motor vehicle to safely share...in your opinion?
Perhaps the cyclists did not agree with your opinion...and considering it was their butts on the bikes, I would defer to their judgment without evidence to the contrary. Got a location we can google?
